Benefits of technology

[0020]The process according to the present invention is capable of introducing the reactants into the reaction zone in a single stream having a constant composition and, as such, it is practical, and has the potential to be useful commercially.

Problems solved by technology

However, none of these references describes preparation of fluorine-containing polymers, copolymers, terpolymers, and blends thereof, prepared by a process, which employs an azeotropic mixture of monomers having a constant composition as the feed stream.

example

[0062]An azeotrope of CTFE and CF3CF═CH2 monomer combination. A typical polymerization is run in a stirred, stainless steel autoclave in which reactants are added by methods known in the art. To a 300 mL autoclave is added (NH4)2S2O8 ammonium persulfate: 15 mL of a solution of 0.56 g dissolved in 40 mL of de-O2 / DI water. Na2S2O5 sodium metasulfite: 19 mL of a solution of 1.2 g dissolved in 40 mL of de-O2 / DI water.

FeSO4 ferrous sulfate: 0.005 g dissolved buffer solution.

Na2HPO4 / NaH2PO4 buffer: 1.34 / 0.68 g dissolved 180 mL.

C7F15CO2(NH4) surfactant: 2.44 g dissolved with buffer.

Add 180 mL of the emulsion solution (water / Na2HPO4 / NaH2PO4 / FeSO4 / C7F15CO2(NH4)).

[0063]The solution is stirred while 40.7 g as a mixture of 60 mol % CF3CF═CH2 and 40 mol % of CTFE are added in which an autogenous pressure is obtained at 10° C. The pressure is kept during the polymerization as to obtain a constant concentration of monomer. After 7 hours, the polymerization is stopped and monomers are released from...

Abstract

A process for the preparation of a fluoroolefin polymer from an azeotropic mixture of monomers having a constant composition, the process including the step of:contacting in a reaction zone:(i) an initiator; and(ii) an azeotropic mixture of monomers including at least one fluoroolefin and, optionally, at least one ethylenically unsaturated comonomer capable of copolymerizing therewith;wherein the contacting is carried out at a temperature, pressure and length of time sufficient to produce the fluoroolefin polymer.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO A RELATED APPLICATION[0001]The present application claims priority from U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 871,035, filed Dec. 20, 2006, which is incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention generally relates to a process for making fluoroolefin homopolymers, copolymers, terpolymers, and blends thereof, employing a single feed of an azeotropic mixture of monomers having a constant composition wherein the azeotropic mixture of monomers includes at least one fluoroolefin and optionally, a comonomer capable of copolymerizing therewith. More particularly, the present invention relates to fluoroolefin homopolymers, copolymers, terpolymers, and blends thereof, prepared by the present process, which employs the azeotropic mixture of monomers of the present invention.[0004]2. Description of the Prior Art[0005]Fluorine-containing polymers and copolymers are described in U.S. Pat. No. 2,970,98...
